What I'm looking for

I seek a role providing executive-level support or operations leadership where I can streamline processes, manage confidential records, mentor staff, and contribute to organizational efficiency and growth.

I am a strategic, results-driven Executive Assistant and Operations Leader with over 20 years supporting CEOs and senior executives across education, retail, healthcare, and corporate sectors.

I have managed multi-million-dollar operations, directed purchasing and vendor management, and led staffing, recruitment, and training initiatives that improved performance and reduced costs.

My administrative strengths include records and confidential information management, budgeting and financial recordkeeping, and process improvement—implementing changes that increased efficiency by measurable margins.

I bring discretion, strong cross-functional collaboration, and a track record of turning disorganized environments into streamlined operations while maintaining a student- and client-focused approach.
